Yes, you have to. What’s taking you so long?

AZ AG Mayes: If I have to, I’ll take Speaker Johnson to court. There's no legitimate reason for him to refuse to swear her in right now. And it's not fair for Mike Johnson to be holding the state of Arizona hostage because he doesn't want to release the Epstein files.

How is Newsom going to enforce the new No Mask law in CA? Will ICE agents be arrested? By local police? How is this going to play out? Just wondering

Detainees treated like violent criminals. Moved from cage to cage at 3 a.m. and sleep-deprived. Only 3 minutes to eat. Bathrooms three times a week. No towel to dry off after a shower and growing fungus on their bodies.

Sounds about right. Gotta meet their quota.
CHIRLA just dropped a heat map tracking immigration raids across L.A., and the data is telling.
Since June, 471 confirmed operations—focused predominantly on specific neighborhoods, POC, and Latinos. Proof that ICE isn’t targeting individuals, they’re profiling communities — to meet quota.

BREAKING: Along with our partners at LULAC, we have filed a claim on behalf of Neiyerver Adrián Leon Rengel, who was wrongfully detained & removed from the U.S. without cause or due process.
The case reflects our ongoing effort to support those impacted by the fed. government's abuses of power.

‘Parishioners excused.’
That’s how bad it is. A Catholic bishop lifted the obligation to attend Mass because ICE might raid the church.
Mass isn’t required “if a member of the faithful has a genuine fear of immigration enforcement actions.”
The feds should be ashamed. Terrorizing the faithful.
